Why are you motivated to support/develop this work?
 
Do you endorse open source culture?
 
Why are you interested in collaborating with us?
 
How do you think that the GVCS can address pressing world issues?
 
What should happen so that you become more involved with the project?
 
What is missing in the project?
 
What are your suggestions for improvement of the project?
 
I fully endorse open source culture. If the world is to become a more just and abundant place, people must have access to the information and tools necessary for autonomous existence.  I want this empowerment for myself and all others who seek it.  The GVCS lends itself to the creation of an alternative culture, a culture in which a "New Normal" can thrive.
 
I can become more involved in the project most effectively by moving to Factor e Farm and developing the construction program.  I believe this project could benefit immensely from a construction-oriented bootstrapping effort in addition to the value added by the farm and manufacturing programs.  I have been involved with my local transition towns effort and our best-yet attended workshop was a rocket mass heater demo.  Green building is fascinating ecologically and economically to many people.  I believe there are opportunities to put lifetracs and liberators to work immediately.  A travelling crew of builders could refine the microhouse design by building microhouses in major cities in the U.S.  These crews could add value and generate revenue by producing a home, teaching people how to create homes, and selling lifetracs and liberators.

Are you interested in being part of the world's first, open source, resilient community? The GVCS is the preparatory step for the OSE Village Experiment – a 2 year, immersion experiment (2013-2014) for testing whether a real, thriving, modern-day prototype community of 200 people can be built on 200 acres using local resources and open access to information? We are looking for approximately 200 people to fill a diverse array of roles, according to the Social Contract that is being developed. This may be the boldest social experiment on earth - a pioneering community whose goal is to extend the index of possibilities regarding harmonious existence of humans, ecology, and technology.
